Potentiation of hydralazine-induced convulsion by isoniazid in rats.

Although many reports indicate side effects of hydralazine (HP) in clinical use, such as arteritis and systemic lupus erythematosus (l-31, no report on central nervous system toxicity has appeared. On the other hand, it is well established that isoniazid (INH) causes convulsion or seizure in experimental animals at high doses, which may be attributed to the decrease in gamma-aminobutyric acid (...

Effect of dexmedetomidine priming on convulsion reaction induced by lidocaine

To study the effect of dexmedetomidine priming on convulsion reaction induced by lidocaine.The New Zealand white rabbits were applied for the mechanism study of dexmedetomidine priming for preventing convulsion reaction induced by lidocaine. The influence of dexmedetomidine priming with different doses on the time for convulsion occurrence and the duration time of convulsion induced by lidocain...

Ichnocarpus frutescens Ameliorates Experimentally Induced Convulsion in Rats

The present study was carried out to evaluate the anticonvulsant activity and probable mechanism of action of the methanol root extract from I. frutescens (MEIF) using different experimental animal models. Anticonvulsant activity of the single dose of MEIF (100, 200, and 400 mg/kg, p.o.) was evaluated in maximal electroshock- (MES-), pentylenetetrazole- (PTZ-), and isoniazid- (INH-) induced con...
